Hope Hicks (born 1988) is the former press secretary for Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
Work with Trump
As an employee of PR firm Hiltzik Strategies, Hicks began working with Ivanka Trump on her fashion line in 2012, and then on other Trump ventures.[1] In August 2014 she joined the Trump Organization full-time.[2] Donald Trump earmarked her for the role of press secretary in January 2015 when planning for a potential presidential run.[3][4] After Trump's first primary victories, Hicks was asked to make a choice between staying with the Trump Organization or fully pledging herself to the campaign. Her initial decision was to leave the campaign, but Trump convinced her to remain and she has stayed on as press secretary.[1]
Personal
Hicks grew up in Greenwich, Connecticut, did teen modeling and attended Greenwich High School, and graduated from Southern Methodist University in 2010, where she also played lacrosse.[1] Her father Paul B. Hicks III was an executive vice-president of communications for the NFL.[2][5][6][7][8]
